    In today's podcast, we discuss Leadership in times of Stress.  There is a lot going on around the country and around the world right now and most people are wondering where we go from here. In times of trouble, we turn to God and to leaders who help put things into perspective, who look for calm and not chaos.  We need leaders at home, in businesses and in every aspect of life, to step up to the plate, and that's where you come in. Be a leader today in your home, and wherever you may be. Until next week...

    In today's episode we discuss Power Connections which is where (or who) we go to to get a power boost in our lives. Too many people go to places where there is no power, places, and people who actually drain them and leave them feeling worse than they did before. There are negative and positive paths for power connections and we need to recognize which paths we are taking when life gets a bit confusing or things are not going the way we expected them to go. Find positive power sources in faith, family, and friends, and walk away from those things and people who drain you of power. Seek wisdom and positivity in your life and plug into the things and the people who can help you become the best person you can be. Power yourself up today! Until next week... Disclosure: We are not talking about electricity, but about the power found in faith, family, and friends and pursuing positive ventures which lead to wisdom and a greater purpose in life.  

    Life Moments - A Mindset of Success

    Play Episode Listen Later Nov 8, 2019 7:26


    In today's podcast, we discuss how success is defined and how to develop A Mindset of Success in life. Far too many people are allowing society, media, movies, and 'influencers' to define success for them. Success for so many means cars, houses, and money. Money won't buy you happiness and that is not the kind of success that we are talking about on today's podcast. Success in life is living a life of gratitude and contentment and being the best person that you can be. We are constantly looking for ways to validate who we are, and people to validate us. We have already been validated by God, so what other opinions really matter? Exactly! Perhaps today may be a good day to check out the man (or woman) in the mirror. Ask yourself who you are and if you are being the best person you can be. Success is about touching lives. Success is about connecting (real connections) with people. Success lives on the inside and not on the surface. Put your mindset of success to work today...You will be glad you did. Until next week...

    Today's podcast (LM48) is titled Coming Out of Your Shell, and as you may have guessed the topic centers on helping those who want to develop a bit more openness and confidence when dealing with others. Now, this podcast is intended to help those who WANT to project more approachability and friendliness. This is not an attempt to get all of the shell dwellers to come out, although the air is fine out here:) I am often asked by those I meet to help them in this area, so I wanted to offer some very simple advice on the topic (which is the foundation for all successful human to human encounters). So, if you are someone who wants to project more openness and friendliness this podcast is for you!

A friend and a social media 'connection' are two totally different concepts. Being a true friend takes effort, and sometimes a lot of effort. Besides faith and family, a friend should be no more than third in your line of importance. Don't forget to value your friends and whatever you do, STAY CONNECTED WITH YOUR FRIENDS! Don't give up on them. Pick up the phone today and call a friend, or better yet go visit a friend. You will be glad you did. Hope you have a great weekend. Until next week...

    LM-42 Where Are You in Life Today? In today's podcast, we discuss the question 'where are you today in life?' We all have ups and downs in life and at times life can seem a bit overwhelming. We all have good times and then times where we seem to hit rock bottom. Our response and our attitudes during these times will often help to determine the outcome. Do we develop a bad attitude, or get jaded towards life or people? Hopefully, we have healthy coping mechanisms that kick into action when we run into life's obstacles, and we are able to persevere and move forward. Faith, family, and friends are always a welcome refuge when times get tough.  If you need professional help or counseling seek it. Don't let your environment or any other factor put a damper on your ability to live life courageously and with an attitude of gratitude. Live life with a purpose and help as many as you can along the way. Until next week...   Terry's Books on Amazon (Click Here)

It is always worth repeating that we need to consider the emotional responses of others that we meet and deal with in every aspect of our lives. People want to be treated well and with respect, and too often we forget that, and we reap the consequences of our actions (or projections). As I have said many times, 'people have emotions and emotions drive people to action'. This is something we should keep in mind when dealing with our fellow humans.

The book deals with all issues of safety and security, and also has chapters dealing specifically with situational awareness and active shooter situations. Order Livsafe Book I hope that you take the issue of personal and family security seriously and that you stay vigilant, and let law enforcement know when you see or hear about something that causes you concern. Remember security is about awareness, education, and preparation.  Our prayers and condolences go out to the families of those who lost their lives, and to the family of the hero, the sheriff's deputy who gave his life fearlessly in the tragic recent event in California.

    In today's podcast, we discuss The Power of Hope, and why we should never give up hope in our lives. Life can be like a roller-coaster where we experience ups and downs and sharp turns that seem to leave us hopeless. There are those who are experiencing pain and suffering in their lives today, and they could use some hope. The first place to look is to God. Too many people try to find hope in some outside source, person, or thing, and that will never lead to true happiness and hope.  We also encourage you to be there for family and friends, to encourage and lift them up, especially in times of struggle. Find your HOPE today. Thanks for joining us today and I hope you have a great week filled with hope. Please subscribe and pass this podcast on to all your friends.  Until next week...

Character is your reputation, traits that describe you, and there has never been a more important time to embrace a life of character. When it seems like society's morals are going down the drain, there is something you can do about it. It starts with you and extends to those within your scope of influence. Teach your kids the value of high character. You won't be disappointed that you did, and stand up for what is right every day along the way.

We also discuss the need to raise children who are grateful, and the need to set the example in our homes.

    Life Moments - Podcast # 10 - A Conversation With Bobby Richardson

    In this week's podcast, we sit down in Sumter, South Carolina with baseball legend Bobby Richardson and discuss baseball, faith and some of his amazing life moments. Bobby played for the New York Yankees from 1955-1966 and had a pivotal role in what has been described as the greatest baseball dynasty of all time. Bobby still holds several world records in baseball after being out of the game for over 50 years. Bobby played in over 1400 games, was an 8-time all-star, won five consecutive Gold Glove Awards, played in seven world series games, walking away with rings from four. He remains (and likely will remain) the only player in the history of baseball to ever be named a world series MVP from a losing team (1960). His accomplishments on and off the field over the years have been nothing less than amazing. He is a humble man of immense faith and character and has been a role model to so many for decades. The interview is around 55 minutes, but you won't want to miss a single minute of this one. We hope you enjoy the interview, please let your friends and family know about today's program and post it on your social media.  A special THANK YOU to Bobby Richardson for agreeing to sit down with me today. This was a special day and I am indeed grateful. Please join us next Friday and every Friday for a new and exciting episode of Life Moments, and please subscribe to the podcast as well. Until next week...
